Imco gear splitter I imagine.
Looks like the Nordic 21 race boat with a dual Imco drive to me...

I think they were #5's or Imcos? I remember it had some big-ass tabs, too?
Anyway...very cool boat.
I think I remember that boat being in an article in either Hoboat or Powerboat sometime last year. Pretty interesting setup.

It's a cyclone with the Imco splitter. It's one of prime marine's ski race boats. I'll dig up some pictures of it out of the water.
Those boats are a "drivers" boat, and can apparently get outta shape in a hurry if you don't know what your doing. From my limited (and I stress limited) understanding, the splitter and two drives helps to spread lift generated from the prop, which in turn reduces chine walking, which in turn allows for greater top end #'s in a safer matter.
Again that's what I was told, so don't be quotin me on it. ;) But it seems to make sense in theory.
